Well its been a little over a little under 2 weeks since i had my neck cut up, i am very surprised at how weak and tired i still am, i lay most of that down to i still do not eat right, well since i can't open my mouth all the way, and if i eat anything (well aside from real soft foods) it tears my mouth up, you know you are having troubles when it takes 20 minutes to eat English muffins, but 3 months ago i could not eat them either.
but back to the point of this email.
I had my neck cut on, the tumor and lymph nodes removed (more details in the previous post) and since then i have had some issues with numbness on my head, my outer ear? numb? my inner ear not numb, what the hell?my scalp area below and to the back of my head? numb, the scalp area above and to the front? not numb, but hurts? again, what the hell?
but its the whole outer ear numb, inner ear not numb that's just plain weird, i mean when i go to clean my ears its the weired feeling you can get, i have no way of explaining it, its just plain weird.
my sleep pattern is off, i am fixing that best i can, i am trying to figure out how to shave, that should be fun, but all in all its still minor compared to what have could have happened.
As i mentioned i am still weak, tired, i was advised by the nice man who cut me up i should take an extra week off before returning to work, so i guess i am,i have some vacation time saved up so i will take a few days just to make sure i am going to have no problems, because being sleepy, or weak behind the wheel of a moving van on the 405 is not a good thing at any time of day or night.
well here is hoping you all (in the USA that is) is having a great forth, and to my friends in the places overseas, hope you are having a great day also.
later all
